First, I'd like to say that your questions are not at all trivial, and I had to do a lot of research to answer these questions for my own work. Squishdot is a product that creates sites similar to Slashdot. It looks nothing like a Mac site, but the graphics can be customized. See http://www.zope.org/Members/chrisw/Squishdot If you need more workflow features, then the CMF might be more suitable for you. Please read through the documentation at http://cmf.zope.org before you install CMF, it is a complex software package. <shameless plug> If you would like some help with this site, we do technical and creative consulting. </shameless plug> Eric Balasbas Senior Developer eric@virtosi.com http://www.virtosi.com/ Virtosi Ltd.

Hi There,

I'm an absolute newbie to Zope and was hoping for some help.

I'm jumping head first into a project for one of our creative clients. I've recommended Zope over other application servers. One of the requirements for the site is that we build an easy mac-feeling content management system for the clients to update the site as well as upload Quicktime files and change stuff around. Where should I start, and what should I use?

Another requirement would be the creation of an online calendar that can be accessed by a particular workgroup. Again, where would I start, and what would I use?

Lastly, what does one charge for building a CMS solution as such?

I appologise if the questions are trivial. Thanks for the time. iggy
